About Kimberly
Kimberly Taylor is a licensed professional counselor with experience helping people manage anger, stress, anxiety, and life changes. She listens closely and works to make therapy direct and useful. Her style aims to help people feel heard and build skills they can use day to day.
She blends a few practical approaches to match what each person needs. Sessions often include mindfulness practices, values-based work, and strategies to change unhelpful thinking and behavior.
Background and approach
Kimberly uses simple exercises and real-world steps so people can try things between sessions. Kimberly earned a Master of Arts degree in mental health and counseling from Wayne State University and holds LPC credentials in Michigan and New Jersey. Her background includes work in community mental health, substance use settings, schools, refugee services, and integrative clinics.

Many clients come for help with mood concerns, trauma and grief, addiction, relationship problems, parenting stress, ADHD, or self-esteem. She also supports people dealing with adoption and foster care issues, codependency, forgiveness, and guilt or shame.
Kimberly pays attention to each person's history and daily life when making a plan. Therapy is collaborative. She explains techniques clearly and checks in about progress.

Therapeutic approaches for online care
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on helping people clarify what matters to them and take small actions toward those values while accepting difficult thoughts and feelings. ACT can be helpful for anger, anxiety, and life transitions because it emphasizes purpose and practical steps.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and teaches concrete strategies to shift unhelpful patterns. CBT is often used for anxiety, depression, anger management, and coping with stress.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Kimberly will collaborate with each person to decide which methods suit their goals, needs, and preferences. She adapts techniques over time and checks in to see what is helping.
Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video sessions allow face-to-face conversation and demonstration of skills. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth or movement is an issue. Live chat and text messaging provide shorter check-ins and ongoing support between appointments. These options make it simpler to fit sessions around work, school, or caregiving responsibilities while using approaches like ACT and CBT in practical ways.
